2.0 TDI oil pump balance shaft problem

[Daniel C]

 

Hello everyone 

So how does one actually know if their 2.0 TDI engine has got a balancer shaft or not ? Can it be known only from engine number or only by physically looking inside the oil pump itself ?

 

Thanks very much

You could ask a VW Audi specialist motor factor to see if they can narrow down the engine code to see if has a balance shaft.
